Why? Just why? Why am I forced to live in a reality where this is considered OK? Where I can clearly understand and explain the issue with this terrible design and no one gives a shit or says "it doesn't matter lol stop being autistic"?
And it's not like people don't fucking know how bad this thing is, and that's why pretty much every modern design of "tactical" rifle these days is coming with a nonreciprocating forward charging handle that can double as a forward assist.
Please give your best defense of this retarded design below, because I've yet to hear one that comes close to being convincing.

Was it autism? Not even; just government bureaucrats making poor choices.
